5.0 out of 5 starsGreat Grip for Vertical Shooting!
I think this is a great product. When attached to the camera (the D300 in my case) the camera feels great, if not a little heavy. It does not come with an EN-EL3a battery so you need to buy another if you want double the battery power. The grip can be used with only one battery, either in the camera body or in the grip itself if you just want better vertical handling,...

3.0 out of 5 starsWorth having - but only if you use it!!!
Pretty stupid title for a review isn't it? Well not not really. I have a Nikon D2XS, had a 2DHs and also have a D300. Now both the D2XS and 2DHs are pro cameras and as such have larger battery capacity. They last longer then the other Nikon SLRs and are faster. Now the D300 is a great camera but is regarded as a semi-pro/amateur camera and as such some areas in design...

I bought this a couple of months ago for a Nikon D300s. It's a great add-on to an already fantastic camera. You do need to purchase a battery separately though for it, so factor this into the cost. It also adds significant weight to the camera, though once you use it you will never take it off again.

Having read various reviews mainly positive I decided to buy a unit, but to my despair it just would not work, I tried everything I could think of but alas it just would not work hence I returned it , to Amazons credit they did credit my account very quickly
